Ancient Oaks is the ideal location for those who want to get away from it all. The area is criss crossed with Public walks, country roads that are virtually empty making the location ideal for cycling and taking in the beautiful country side. The centre of France offers a taste of the true traditional France, great local food and vineyards on the doorstep. For those who enjoy visiting Chateaux, and places of historical interest you will find them in abundance. Ancient Oaks provides the perfect location for families who want to get away from the busy day to day life and spend time together.

Try teleskiing at Pouligny Notre Dame (URL HIDDEN) or make a leisurely visit to one of the areas beautiful Chateaux and Roman ruins. The local people are friendly and helpful and there is something for everyone.

We had a great weekend with friends at our host. The house is top, large with all necessary equipment. In addition to the pool, there is a very great ideal ground for outdoor games and a summer kitchen with barbecue and mini fridge perfect for meals. Dave & Di are very welcoming and couldnt do enough for us. A remake without hesitation for a change of scenery and an invigorating tranquility!

The chimney fire was close to be on, the heated house. A barbecue was quickly made available. The house is a bit away from main roads to get there, but ideal for a quiet stay with children who want to be outside.

BENOIT2016-03-30T00:00:00Z

Accommodation very well equipped. Located in a quiet place.

Corinne2017-01-01T00:00:00Z

Lovely house in the French countryside. Just as described, the garden is wonderful.

Tom2017-08-05T00:00:00Z

The cottage (comfortable and very well equipped) has perfectly met our expectations for this weekend with friends and with young children. We highly recommend it.

Véronique2017-05-01T00:00:00Z

An exceptional 2-week stay in the Berry. The house is top, very comfortable and very well equipped, we wanted for nothing and Dave was too much trouble. A huge beautifully flowered garden with areas of shade and sun to make room for different activities cravings. The heated pool is very nice with 29 degrees, and the outdoor kitchen with barbecue competition is very significant especially in hot weather. Very very good peaceful family vacation. We will return without a doubt, I recommend this place for families. still thank you to Dave for his kindness and sympathy.

Julien2016-07-31T00:00:00Z

We came past 4 days for the New Year Old Oaks (9 adults, no children) and had a great time. The house is beautiful, very welcoming and very well equipped for cooking. Even better on site than the pictures. Even to 9 people, we were settled around the fireplace. Dave is a very welcoming host, very responsive via email prior to stay on site and available to further enhance the quality of the stay in case of need. Everything was clean. The bedding is quite firm and very comfortable. I recommend the Old Oaks and would go back with pleasure.

Laurent2016-01-05T00:00:00Z

A fantastic weekend! Since the reservation a few months in advance to start our discussion with Dave & Di were super easy. We were very well received, we 1 group of 10 people. The house is warm, modern, well equipped and well maintained! It s' in there feels speedy !! The living room is spacious and ideal for travel, lounging on the sofas, eat together to cook next door! The rooms and bathrooms were spotless 3 (the showers were powerful this is important :)), nice heating, and a big plus: the dishwasher! The garden is huge, the site is located in the countryside, beautiful walks guaranteed! Ideal for 10 people. In the middle of France We will come back for sure! A big thank-you!

Large house with open countryside, peaceful location a place to get away from it all, good for waliking, The Cher offers a taste of the true traditional France, great local vineyards on the doorstep. The property is located down a small lane, off another virtually unused lane !!
The pool is an above ground (PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN), swing ball, table tennis, baby foot, full size pool table, board games etc

Paul's place is very tranquil and quirky. Whilst Paul was very helpful and encouraged us to contact him if we needed anything, we could not help but be disappointed with the standard of cleanliness. The whole house felt like it hadn't been inhabited or cleaned for some time. Everything needed washing before we felt we could use it. It was such a shame because the house could be beautiful. The swimming pool also needed a thorough clean

Le Jardin du Jauny, would make the perfect setting for a romantic holiday for nature lovers, with its various hiking trails, but equally it’s a fantastic place to sit back and relax. The house and the gite have been completely renovated in 2011, providing a mix of antique furniture and modern equipment. They are both surrounded by a large garden and are peacefully secluded.

As soon as you enter the gate you immediately feel the delightfulness of nature meeting you.
The gite has been renovated in 2015, using original the materials.

My place is close to family-friendly activities and public transport. My place is good for couples and solo adventurers.

Leo was very welcoming and received us with a glass, made himself available and listened to us. A real gentleman

Tiphanie2016-09-23T00:00:00Z

Leo was just great! He made sure to wait for us late at night, opened his lovely cottage, very simple but super nice, quiet countryside, very good value for money. Leo is a very nice man, open to others and very accommodating. Attentive to the well being of its hosts! We even had the little aperitif evening at his place on the corner of the fireplace with a little verse of red wine under jazz background! Really a great stay, thanks again Léo for your hospitality and see you soon!

Zélia2016-11-01T00:00:00Z

Beautiful chalet-style wooden house with 5 bedrooms and 11 beds, living room with fireplace, large equipped kitchen, children's play areas (books, games and dvd on site for the whole family). Well equipped for babies (cot, bed-umbrella, park, high chair, bath ...). Very beautiful and large enclosed garden with swing, sandpit, barbecue and parking. In the heart of the Black Valley of George Sand, for beautiful literary walks. Bathing place nearby.

The house is well laid out with plenty of storage space in each bedroom.
Small mezzanine spaces can be used as a play area for children, or additional sleeping space thanks to the available heater.
Each room has access to the outside, including the upstairs bedroom through an outdoor staircase. Ideal for the autonomy of everyone.

The house is located in Berry, in the "Black-Valley", country of the famous novelist George Sand. You can discover the sites she loved (the "devil's pond", the mill Angibault, the castle Sarzay, etc ...) as well as her house of Nohant, where she wrote most of her works.
You can also visit Sainte-Sévère, the village where Jacques Tati's film "Jour de Fête" was shot.
Natural sites such as the Parc des Parelles in Crevant or the "Jaumâtres Stones" in Toulx-Sainte-Croix will offer you beautiful walks amidst remarkable granite chaos.
For the sports enthusiasts, there are numerous leisure facilities available: swimming, kayaking, pedal boats, rowing courses, zip lines, cable skiing (unique in the region), golf and mini-golf, laser Badminton court, tennis court, indoor swimming pool, etc.

Beautiful apartment, very pleasant. Claire and Anthony were very welcoming and accommodating on arrival and departure times. The rooms and especially their bedding are very comfortable. The wooden construction a little surprising at first (a mountain chalet in the deep Berry!) But you get used quickly. Everything is provided by Claire and Anthony for occupant comfort, including a large selection of DVDs and games of all kinds. We really enjoyed all three a pleasant stay, we even planned to extend a bit, but we had to go ... It will do more than we get back, and as we still have a lot to see in this beautiful area, it is certainly what we will do! food side, we have not been disappointed either: good bakery (Mas Caron, Castle Street) in Chateaumeillant (6 km) and a Intermarché same city, great restaurant (The Snail) in La Châtre where there is also a great Super U. But forget not the Wednesday market in Sainte-Severe (the city was shot "Jour de fête" by Jacques Tati) nor dairy Goyard at Logeat / Saint-Priest-la-Marche, which is a cow tomme raw milk to fall and you sell fresh milk, as long as you remembered to bring your container. Great tour of the house of George Sand in Nohant, and tasting the tea room "The Teapot", inside the building, very good ice cream and whipped in unison (they had been robbed of all their cakes !!). In short, housing and living to recommend no restrictions.

Bettina2016-08-13T00:00:00Z

Claire&Anthony's place is a beautiful loghouse in the middle of the countryside about half an hour from Nohant-Vic, where you can visit the maison of George Sand and the Nohant Festival Chopin. The house is fully equipped with everything you could need for your stay and very clean. Clare and Anthony are extremely nice and helpful and I will definetely stay there again if I'll be around another time. The outside garden is gorgeous, as showed in the pictures, and the property allowes you to enjoy of a lot of privacy during your stay. The only downside of this place is that it is very very difficult to find using maps like (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) maps. You need to have the exact GPS coordinates that Anthony and Clare give you on Airbnb website when you reserve their house. I will definitely recommend La Souche des Loges.

Fede2016-06-06T00:00:00Z

A very nice house, a garden and a shaded pergola and a barbecue competition we made our friends very nice. Claire and Anthony were very welcoming and accommodating hosts on schedules. To see what happiness beds made up on arrival! Equipment full house! So everything is there for a baby !! In short we perfect! clear and thank you Anthony

Julie2016-07-25T00:00:00Z

Claire's home was beautiful, very quiet and had everything we needed to cook and relax. Everything was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. One of our party is 6ft5 and had trouble with the bedroom ceiling but everything else was perfect!

Kat2017-07-01T00:00:00Z

We have returned from our weeks holiday in France and thoroughly enjoyed it. Claire and Anthony were both very friendly and the house is gorgeous. We will certainly be keeping their details to enjoy a holiday again. The house was perfect and has more than expected. Thank you Claire and Anthony

Rebekah2016-08-06T00:00:00Z

Accommodation exactly as described. Very quiet, fully equipped and well maintained. Very nice garden, no worries. Enjoyed the very nice wood fire on cool evenings! Definitely recommended for this region.

Gwenaël2017-03-19T00:00:00Z

Despite that there remained one night in this little cottage, we found this property very well. There is everything for a good stay: Swing and large fenced for children, sheep and cows ... it is far from buildings and pollution !!!

Guillaume2017-02-19T00:00:00Z

Claire and Anthony were very keen to better prepare our stay. The house is original and very nice. The garden is a delight for children and adults. The only regret is not staying longer.

Pure enclave of happiness. A cottage renovated with taste extremely functional, spacious, crossing and bright, suitable for a couple and two children. Terrace and garden available for coffee or a drink in the shade or in the sun, surrounded by sheep, ducks, chickens who come to claim some (big!) Pieces. Children will find them with meadows, woods, stream, a water leisure center plane a few kilometers for swimming and tree climbing, as well as medieval castles and shady paths for the ride. The place is for relaxation and breathing. The masters of the house are the epitome of kindness and attention to their guests. Their gardens are a treat to watch as well as browse, mineral and vegetable intermingle in harmony: here is cultivated lifestyle. Our best stay.

Paul2017-03-13T00:00:00Z

Stargazer cottage is a charming house. Ideal for being green. The place is beautiful and quiet. However full of activities available around the village. Maureen and Steve are very welcoming and generous hosts. I highly recommend this place!

Cabin set in 32 acres of rural french countryside next to a 2.5 acre fishing lake. The cabin has its own private terrace and bbq area. Facilities include satellite tv, shower, toilet, kitchenette with fridge. 10km from shops and medieval town

We had a really great stay! The photos don't do it any justice; it is a lot bigger. He has since upgraded the cabin making it spacious enough for 8 people and a baby. We will definitely return to see the end result. Highly recommend staying here.

Perfect home in the heart of the Auvergne by Ceciel! Our host spoke perfect French and sent us all the details useful to get to the mill! Isolated, ideal to relax and enjoy the quiet of nature! Location charming, comfortable room totally restored in natural materials. Only small problem: no Wi-Fi network and few but perfect for those who want to disconnect from the world! beautiful and hearty breakfast!

Sylvie2016-07-23T00:00:00Z

Last night we were hosted by Cecile in La Ressource. We had a very nice! The place is beautifully renovated and our room was very nice, comfortable and clean. The bed was luxurious and super slept well and the bathroom (in the room) was clean and very nice. When we arrived we were welcomed with a drink and some snacks outside on the lovely terrace with stunning views, a true paradise! The welcome from Cecile and Theo made us feel more than welcome, the nice conversations tasted more. We slept well and it was so peaceful and quiet that we slept much longer than we had planned. La Ressource is definitely a place we want to return again but we definitely more books! Highly recommended! Thank you Theo and Ceciel for the fantastic experience. Until next time!

The gite of Judith and Paul is truly fabulous. The family makes you feel right at home. They are very helpfull and sociable. The gite is situaties on the characteristic old farm complex, making you feel part of French farmlife right away with all kinds of animals included. Plenty of privacy though, when you need it. The Pool, trampoline and ofcourse the animals are paradise for children. Paul, as a carpenter, really fixed the old barn into a nice little house with all essentials included. Decoration is French brocante with good eye for details. Conclusion: a true recommendation!

Marieke2015-07-20T00:00:00Z

Judith and her family received us very warm and welcoming. On request they were also kind enough to provide a perfect breakfast. The house is wonderfully peaceful and rustic, near beautiful countryside. And finally we would everyone on Friday warmly recommend the pizza night!

Martin2016-08-21T00:00:00Z

Judith and family were great hosts for our three day stay. The house is a wonderfully reconstructed farm building with ducks, chickens and a goat all roaming in a spacious shared outdoor space. There is also a pool (ideal for kids) and a hammock zone under the trees For the adults. Judith was very helpful with suggestions of places to visit with the children. We would definitely visit again when travelling south.
